Blackburn are lining up a deal for MFK Kosice starlet Dionatan Nascimento, skysports.com understands.

The 17-year-old central defender, who has already made his first-team debut for the Slovakian outfit, has been chased by a number of clubs over the past few months.

He trained with Newcastle in January, but a move failed to materialise.

It is now understood that Nascimento has been in England over the past few weeks training with both Birmingham and Blackburm.

But now Rovers look to be heading the race to land him after making an offer for his services.

They are believed to be in talks with MFK and have offered the player a three-year deal.

However, it remains to be seen whether Nascimento, who only moved to Slovakia last summer from Londrina, will be eligible to make the move to England.
